'Cash' the dog banks on firefighters' high-rise heroism - VIDEO - Wentworth Point
Published: 18 Jul 2023 12:34pm
Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) crews have rescued a Pomeranian precariously perched on the side of an apartment building at Wentworth Point, in Sydney's west.
Firefighters were called around 9:45 last night to the complex on Burroway Road, where the dog, named 'Cash', was stuck on a ledge on the 7th floor.
Among the FRNSW resources deployed to the scene was a ladder truck, which allowed trained personnel to safely reach the higher floors to retrieve 'Cash'.
The balance of the mission to save this precious pooch was completed a short time later, as fire crews lowered to ground level with 'Cash' in transit.
'Cash' was returned unscathed to his relieved owner.
